Sunday was a rough day for the Browns and their fans, even in a 13-10 win over the Lions. Few games have felt more like a loss than that one.

Who should shoulder most of the blame for the offense? How significantly are Baker Mayfield's injuries affecting him? Can we have a little hope the offense can get going as the team hits the road for Baltimore?

All that and more in today's podcast.

Show notes

The Browns were blown out by New England on Sunday, 45-7, and on this postgame Orange and Brown Talk Podcast, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock, Scott Patsko, Mary Kay Cabot and Doug Lesmerises dive into all of it.

On the defensive side, should the Browns blitz more? Are they getting enough out of their free agent signings? What's Myles Garrett saying about losses, and should be be saying that?

There was a lot wrong with the Browns, which leaves a lot to discuss. Thanks for joining us.
